AC Milan are just a point behind their Milan counterparts but they head into this Sunday’s meeting on the back of a surprising 2-0 defeat away from home at Spezia, so the ‘hosts’ will have a point to prove here.
AC Milan had started this Serie A campaign with an impressive 15-match unbeaten run but a few defeats have started to creep in in recent times as they’ve lost three of their last seven matches, but they’ve also gained four wins too.
Inter Milan too, as they share the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza with today’s hosts, AC Milan, but there’ll be no love lost in this fixture as not only bragging rights are up for grabs here but also the serious matter of a Serie A title at stake too. The ‘visitors’ have suffered just two defeats all season to date.
Inter Milan bring a six-match unbeaten run into this local derby having racked up four wins in the process over Juventus, Benevento, Fiorentina and Lazio, which has helped maintain their position at the top of Serie A, albeit by a slender margin of a single point.
However, local derbies have the tendency to throw the form book out of the proverbial window so the goals market appeals here, especially as 15 of Inter’s 22 matches overall have also resulted in over 2.5 goals.
PREDICTION: OVER 2.5 MATCH GOALS TO BE EXPECTED.
